Amphenol Invotec, one of Europe’s leading manufacturers of time-critical, high-technology PCBs.
Amphenol Invotec, Europe’s leading manufacturer of time-critical, high-technology PCBs has commissioned a new Pluritec Inspecta Combo HPLX-Ray drill with complete automation, from Viking Test for its facility in Tamworth.
Offering a one-stop solution, the Inspecta Combo HPL combines 4 machines in 1 system. The patented "One Step X-Ray drilling & Routing" function will perform, via X-Ray system, paneltarget detection and deformation compensation (linear, non-linear rotation, offset and scaling) and direct drilling or routing. Optical alignment capability further enhances registration options for specialised applications.
Enhanced capability, versatility and flexibility make the COMBO HPL an ideal choice for the processing of complex multi-layer, and rigid-flex PCBs at Amphenol Invotec. Large panel format capability falls in line with Invotec’s ongoing investment to increase panel size capability across all manufacturing areas.
Tim Tatton, General Manager of Amphenol Invotec, commented on the new machine:
"We specialize in complex, high layer count, high reliability PCBs, which means that we are increasingly working with thin and varied materials, including variable copper weights. Registration challenges are ever tighter and this machine will give us a significant step forward in driving yield improvements and through automation reducing cycle time & costs, which is good news for Amphenol Invotec and our customers."
